I have heard that the best sake in Shimane is Oroku. I found it at a sake shop I visited for the first time, so I took it home to try. Now let's see what kind of taste awaits us!
The aroma is not gorgeous, but it is gentle and conveys the sweetness of the rice in a straightforward manner. The brewing water is rough and viscous, probably due to the abundance of minerals, but this water propagates the flavor strongly in the mouth. It is extremely fresh. The sweetness is clinging to it, but it is moderate. And then there is the careful, soothing sharpness that somehow erases these flavors in the mist.... What is this? It is too good to be true! It is fresh, but not too sharp and gentle. You will never get tired of drinking it. Like Tenju and Oroku, Shimane has too much delicious sake. I will repeat this in the future!
Thank you again for the sake tonight!
